Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

y=mx+b is the point slope form and is the form that is used on the equation.

The slope is mx, or in this case 1x. If you're simply looking for a shift in the line, then the slope has to be the same, so we know that b is not the answer. The y-intercept is b, or as the problem's equation shows, 2. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis (the vertical axis). Since you're looking for a shift downwards, you need the y-intercept to be lower than 2. The only one that matches that is option A.

Hope this helps!
